Subject[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: kgdb: Replace Jason with Daniel
Date
... with many, many thanks for Jason for all his hard work.

Cc: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com>
Signed-off-by: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org>

Notes:
Over the years Jason has become increasingly hard to get hold off
and I think he must now be regarded as inactive.

Patches in kgdb-next (mine as it happens) have been there for over a
year without a corresponding pull request and a couple of architecture
specific kgdb fixes have ended up missing a release cycle (or two) as
the architecture maintainer waits for an Acked-by from Jason.

In the past I've had to rely on Andrew M. to land my own changes to
kgdb and in the v4.14 cycle you'll find my Acked-by on b8347c219649
("x86/debug: Handle warnings before the notifier chain, to fix KGDB
crash"). That I was sharing surrogate acks convinced me we need a
change here and I've offered Jason help via private e-mail without
reply.

So, I really would prefer it it if this patch listed me as a
co-maintainer or, failing that, as least had Jason's blessing... but
it doesn't. I certainly suggest this patch takes a long time in
review, and if it doesn't attract Jason's attention then I can only
reiterate what is says in the commit log: Thanks Jason!
